City Cong chief threatened to kill me, alleges Seva dal chief

Surat: Congress Seva Dal’s Surat city’s chief organiser Dharmesh Mistry has alleged that Surat city Congress president Babu Rayka has threatened him to kill over the phone using abusive language. Mistry, who was sacked by Congress Seva Dal as city chief, approached the police to lodge a complaint against Rayka and his son Rushin.
An audio conservation, in which Rayka allegedly used abusive language to Mistry went viral on social media on Wednesday. All India Congress Seva Dal on Wednesday removed Mistry and appointed Shantosh Patil as Surat city’s chief organiser.
“We organised a virtual meeting at the party office and after the event, decorators took away all chairs from the office.
